Chapter 38: Relocation of Graves
Fox Heart Xiao Qi took Kang Wen to inspect each place one by one, and it took at least a month.
These are just foxes in the countryside, not real foxes in the mountains, nor a prominent family among foxes.
Fox Heart Xiao Qi can count and inspect the foxes in the village, but not the foxes in the mountains or the prominent fox families.
After all, Fox Heart Xiao Qi only had a little bit of Gong Mengbi's spiritual power, so he couldn't borrow much magical power. Foxes living with humans in the countryside would more or less follow the rules of human society, and Fox Heart Xiao Qi could probably handle it.
The environment in the deep mountains is much more complicated. If Fox Heart Xiao Qi encounters some evil spirits and monsters, he won't be able to handle it.
However, the prominent fox family probably would not give face to a fox fairy messenger.
Even the foxes in Ma Shenpo's family didn't take Fox Heart Xiaoqi seriously, so the prominent fox families probably didn't want to have more superiors.
Gong Mengbi planned to go and find out about it himself after he had recovered. Although the immortal position was loose, he couldn't completely ignore it.
When the bright moon was high in the sky, the three sisters from Meiren Ridge floated up to Wuhuan Peak.
Gong Mengbi smelled a ghost and came out to see what was happening. He smiled and asked, "Why are you here?"
Huang Yi Jiaying said with a smile, "We wanted to see how that fool is doing."
Gong Mengbi said, "This is unfortunate. I sent Xiao Qi down the mountain. It might take some time for him to come back."
Zhiruo asked curiously, "It's only been two days, and you've cured him?"
Gong Mengbi sighed and said, "How can it be cured? His loss of one soul and one spirit wasn't accidental. He was captured by the Snake Mother Goddess of Jiaozhi. My abilities are limited, and I can't snatch his soul back from the Snake Mother Goddess."
Gong Mengbi told the three beauties about Xiao Qi's bizarre life story, and they couldn't help but sigh.
None of them had ever heard of the name of the Snake Mother Goddess, but just listening to what Gong Mengbi said made them feel a little chilled.
After chatting about Xiao Qi for a while, Gong Mengbi saw that the three sisters had no intention of leaving, but seemed to be hesitant to speak, so he couldn't help but ask, "Have you three encountered any difficulties?"
The eldest sister Qiongfang said apologetically, "Actually, the reason I came here today is not only about that fool, but also because I have something else to ask of you."
Gong Mengbi asked them to sit down and said, "Tell me about it."
Qiongfang nudged Jiaying, who then bowed to Gong Mengbi and said, "It's actually about me."
"I'm originally from the county town. My family name is Chen. I died for some reason more than ten years ago. Holding a grudge, I refused to enter the underworld and hid in Longpan Mountain. I was taken care of by my two sisters and placed on a peach tree in Meiren Ridge."
"But as time goes by, the spirit of the peach branch is no longer enough for me to rely on, and my grave is far away in the county."
Jiaying smiled bitterly and said, "The fox fairy originally practiced in the county town, so I would like to ask you to help me move the grave."
"This..." Gong Mengbi frowned slightly and said, "I don't know how your family is doing these days. If your family members are still alive, why don't you ask them to help move the graves through a dream?"
Jiaying shook her head. "My parents are dead, my brother and I don't get along, and I don't have anyone to rely on."
Gong Mengbi smiled bitterly and said, "Why are you asking me for help?"
Jiaying glanced at Gong Mengbi and said, "I originally wanted to ask Granny Shi for help, but Granny Shi didn't want to come out, so she asked us to ask you."
Gong Mengbi thought for a moment and said, "I'm afraid we can't move the grave. We can only take your remains and bury them in Meiren Ridge."
Jiaying said happily, "That's enough."
Relocating a grave is a big deal, and digging up someone's grave out of thin air is not a good thing. But simply taking the remains is much easier, at least it's less likely to be discovered.
It just so happened that Gong Mengbi also had something to do at the Shen family, so he agreed.
However, Jiaying had not been home for ten years and didn't even know where her own grave was, so Gong Mengbi took her with him.
When the sky was about to brighten, Qiongfang and Zhiruo returned to Meiren Ridge first.
Gong Mengbi put Jiaying's soul in the umbrella and went down the mountain to Wuning County.
Shen family in Wuning County.
Gong Mengbi used the form-hiding technique to enter and saw the East Garden that the Shen family had reserved for him.
The East Garden was still deserted, with sedge and mugwort growing vigorously on the ground.
One of the paths was originally opened up by Gong Mengbi's magic, but was later trampled on repeatedly and has remained so.
The pavilion where Gong Mengbi originally lived was not significantly renovated, except that it was converted into an incense hall.
The hall enshrines the tablet of the Goddess of Mount Tai, and next to the tablet of the Goddess of Mount Tai is Gong Mengbi.
Gong Mengbi stretched out his hand and the incense in the incense hall fell into his sleeves and disappeared.
Looking at the place where he had lived for ten years, Gong Mengbi felt a little emotional for a moment.
Chen Shan has been busy dealing with the affairs of the two little guys these days.
There is a Shidong Academy in Wuning, which was established by the Guo family, a prominent family in the county. They also invited famous teachers of the time to give lectures here.
Wu Ning has always had a good style of study, and Chen Shan originally wanted to send the two little boys to Shidong Academy for study.
But Gong Mengbi once warned him that it would be better to keep it far away, otherwise something unexpected might happen.
So Chen Shan has been contacting friends these days, hoping to send the two little ones to Yuhang to study at Wansong Academy.
The two kids were young, and I couldn’t bear to send them too far away, but I was afraid something might happen if I sent them too close, so I had to choose Yuhang.
It just so happened that there were distant relatives in Yuhang who could help take care of him.
When Chenshan was offering sacrifices to Gong Mengbi, he prayed several times, but Gong Mengbi did not respond, which was considered as his consent.
Judging from the correspondence, there is no problem for them to study in the academy.
So the two little guys will probably be sent away in a few days.
One of the things Gong Mengbi did when he came here was to meet these two little guys. After all, they were recognized as tools, so he still had to keep an eye on them to prevent any accidents.
The two little guys didn't want to leave. Although time had passed and their memory of being rescued by Gong Mengbi that day had gradually faded, the more blurred the memory became, the more sacred and profound the impression Gong Mengbi left in their hearts.
That night, Gong Mengbi used the same trick again and pulled Chen Shan into his dream.
The moon is high in the sky.
When Chen Shan saw the fox fairy in red standing under the moon, he couldn't help but say happily, "Fox fairy, you're back!"
Gong Mengbi said, "I'm on official business and will be staying in Wuning for a few days, so I came to see you."
Chen Shan was delighted and said, "The East Courtyard has been kept for you, hoping that you can come again."
Gong Mengbi smiled and said, "I'll give you something. You can give it to your two boys when they leave."
Gong Mengbi handed a wooden box to Chenshan, who was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Fox Fairy."
"There's one more thing I want to ask you. Does Wu Ning know of any honest and righteous scholars with real talent and knowledge? It doesn't matter if they're rich or poor, but they must be talented and knowledgeable, not just pretentious?"
Shen Shan pondered for a moment and said, "My friend has a child who is gentle and upright. He may be considered a trustworthy scholar, but I haven't examined him carefully, so I can't guarantee it to you."
Gong Mengbi said, "No problem, I'll go test him myself. What's his name?"
Shen Shan said: "Ning Caichen."
